EHSO has also created lab safety binders that include all the necessary lab safety documents for your lab. The purpose of the binders is to make accessing safety information convenient for everyone working in the lab. If you would like a lab safety binder, you can request a lab safety binder by sending an email to labsafety@uic.edu with a room location, PI, and mail code for the campus.

Hazard labeling is a commonly overlooked laboratory safety issue. In an effort to reduce this oversight, EHSO has created magnetic GHS hazard labels for chemical storage. Avoid the hassle of sticker removal and request hazard magnets for your lab.

Recently, EHSO created a laboratory safety checklist for new PIs. The list covers necessary safety equipment and lab documents needed for setting up a new lab on campus. You can access it here. If researchers would like a consultation from an EHSO Lab Safety Advisor, you may request one via labsafety@uic.edu.
